cnosil Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 39-40 --- 79 today. 11 pars and 7 bogeys; like Siiver & Black I couldn't putt. I had one 3 putt but lots of 2 putts on missed greens. Tee to green i was solid and was happy to finally get a chance to try my KBS Prototype Hybrid shafts. More on the shafts when the official review thread gets underway.

Kor.A.Door Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Been struggling the last couple weeks. I'm getting a little burned out with the last 2 months of golf. I've played a lot of competitive rounds of golf in that time, and I think the grinding and pressure is catching up, I have one more conpetitive weekend left, then I should be able to take some much needed time off. My scores weren't horrible, but I am just a little off. Last week was 83-85, this week was 84-82, I did shoot 39 on the back nine in my last round 82.

Kenny B Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 It was not a very good day. Still trying to find my swing; lost it somewhere last week. Some holes are good; others are bad. Started out with a birdie on #1, then nothing but bogeys with the occasional par thrown in. Two beers from the cart girl on the back nine didn't help either. A lousy 85. Oh well, there's tomorrow.

MaxEntropy Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I played really, really poorly today. 102 (47, 55). Trying to polish a turd, I was crushing my 3w - on one hole I had a sand wedge when everyone else had 6 iron or longer. Chipping was terrible and I burned the edges on way too many 6-12 footers. I could not hit an iron. If I made solid contact, it ended up way left (a few occasions way, way left), not solid shots were fading. How do you pick a target when that happens? Really, I learned two import things today: 1) I love my 3w - I had quite a few in the 270 range off the tee; and 2) I desperately need some lessons. Up until the last month, I was having back problems that apparently hampered my swing more than I knew. Now that I can swing pain free, I have no idea where it's going with irons. I can't say I really understand why I have been pretty solid with 3w and 3h through it all, but I'll take it.

dang3rtown Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 ... Played yesterday with two high school kids. One was trying to make the varsity as a sophomore and I am guessing 5'6" and no more than 130lbs. I could not believe how far he drove the ball. Normal looking swing with the exception of through impact where he had crazy flash speed. Probably averaged 275 off the tee. But just no short game to match and and even worse temper. ... On #10 a down wind downhill short 317yd par 4 with water right and trees left and a very deep bunker guarding most of the front, he hit it to within a yard of the trap. I hit a Utility Iron leaving me a full 60* approach and hit it to 6" and made birdie. He semi bladed his chip hitting it to the far fringe and up against the collar. Hit a weak chip that came up about 4' short and missed the putt. He threw his wedge about 40 yards toward the nest tee. Pretty much the same all round long. Just amazing to see someone so young with so much talent and waste it. I told him I was a QB in college and keeping a calm demeanor was essential to playing well and it carried over to my golf game. He kinda laughed and said he was too little for football and his anger helps him on the course. There are some sports where getting fired up and angry can help, golf is not one of them! Every good golfer I know (as in really good), has one thing in common; even keel demeanor. In high school I was on the golf team with a guy named Nick Watney who is on the PGA tour now. He was the calmest person you ever met. Almost to the point of it making me wonder if he lacked the ability to really have emotions. The guy was just scary calm all the time, nothing got to him, never mad, never excited, just the same, cruising along, being a million times better than me at golf. kardboard.kid, Rickp, cksurfdude and 3 others 6 Quote Driver: G 10.5* W/Tour Stiff 65g Ping Shaft Fairway Woods: Cobra F6 13.5*, F6 Baffler 16* Irons: Split Set- i200 3i - 7i , Ft Worth 15s, 8 (36), 9 (40), PW (44) Wedges: TK, 52* & 56* Putter: Sigma G Kushin Bag: Hoofer 5way Balls: TP5/X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaxbeachpackerfan Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Don't you love symmetry?? Not. Friday, I shot a good front nine 39 and a not so good back nine 48. Yesterday, same course, same conditions, I shot a not so good front nine 48 and a good back nine 39. Same 87, but completely different rounds. Couldn't get anything going yesterday until my re tee on the long par 3 11th after hitting the first into the water (water juts in after the tee). Then, out of nowhere, I hit a great 4 iron to 10 feet from 195, then par, birdie, birdie, bogie, bogie, par and par.

Rusty1885 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Good round today playing with my brother. Nothing spectacular really just fairways and greens a few good shots around the green to save par. Pulled out the Tuttle putter my old faithful and rolled some great putts. I think that's the highlight of the rounds. We teed off at 5:30 about 45 mins before the official sunrise. Played 3 holes in the dark pretty cool. We both took a mulligan each nine and I shot 74 to my brother 82, he cut his finger yesterday so he only out drived me by 20 yards.

Kor.A.Door Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I knew I had a bad iron day, but didn't realize it was this bad. I went back through the round from Sunday score 82. I hit 14-14 fairways, and I hit 3-18 greens. That's about as bad as it gets right there. To top that off my chipping was just a little off. The ball was landing about 3 past where I was planning so instead of having 4-5 footers for par, I was leaving myself 12-15 footers.

ddryan Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 About the only thing I am consistent at is inconsistency... Saturday shot smooth 90 during the downpours which were the remnants of Harvey- no roll and not striking the ball well. Did win my friendly matchplay with a buddy 1 up on 18- he bought the beer. Sunday, trying to keep up with STUDque tearing the cover off his ball on his drives... we both shot 39's on the front, lets just say the course got us both on the back 9. Although I finished with a 41, could have been better if a few putts dropped. All in all a decent enough round. Monday, thanks to the Boss for sending me out of the house so she could finish a work related report in quiet- I shot another mediocre 86 (42-44) - missed quite a few short putts (within 5 feet) and actually 3 putted two greens- just don't have the putting touch right now, and that is creating a lack of confidence which is carrying over to the next hole- Need to focus on putting, putting and putting (and get my hands on the Queen B-- I think I am really jonesing it !!!!) cksurfdude, Flipper554, MattF and 2 others 5 Quote What's in the bag?

Kenny B Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Sounds like a lot of my rounds. Missing greens with a short game that is off equals bogeys. That sums up my day yesterday too. My wife and I played the front nine with a city cop that snuck in nine holes before going to work. My wife said... "Nice hunk!" (I need his body) Great guy with a good game. I played OK, but missed several greens and only managed to get up and down about half the time. When the hunk left at the turn, the course marshall asked us if we would join the twosome behind us. They were nice enough, hit the ball a ton, but had no short game. At that point... neither did I. It's amazing how the play of people in your group affects your play. I still managed to shoot 83, but it could have been a lot better if my wife and I played as a twosome.

chisag Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 ... Had a fun round with the Mrs and my son yesterday. 15-20 mph winds with gusts to 30. Had another close call in my quest to play 18 holes with pars only. Been close many times but the last several holes always seem to bring a birdie or bogie. Had 17 pars that I was very proud of because I had to get up and down so many times in that crazy wind. Holed a 20 footer and a 12 footer from the fringe to save par twice an honestly thought the run was coming to an end but just kept grinding. ... Had a 142 yd downwind shot on #16 and knew a perfectly struck pw would get me close while a 9i would be safe but could also be 20-30 foot long. The whole idea of 18 straight pars is doing it trying to play the best shots, not just play to par when a birdie/eagle is available so I went with the pw. Hit it a hair toward the toe and came up 1 yard short but buried against the lip of the bunker. Blasted out to 30 feet because it was gonna roll out of that lie and missed the putt for my only bogie. Mrs and son could not break 100 in those conditions but we all had a really fun day on the course. Highlight of the day was a 345 yd downwind tee shot by my son. I hit a drive about as good as I could hit it and was 50 yds behind him! cksurfdude, Kenny B, MaxEntropy and 2 others 5 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ... Ventus Red Velocore 5R Fairway: Qi10 5 wood ...

dang3rtown Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I had one of those days where everything that could go wrong, did! Shot a 52 on the front nine and called it a day. Let's put it this way, On the two par 5s, I was off the green but distance wise there in 2 both times. I carded a 7 on each of them! Ugh!

cksurfdude Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Played poorly yesterday. But I am hoping this is my last post where I say that! Made some bad shots, and some course management mistakes, in what I'd thought might have initially been an effort to play bogey golf (have done it recently) .. but ended 9 holes with a 53. (..horrible details omitted...) Later, I met up with the guy who runs and manages the (small muni) course; he took some time to give me a coaching session. Well, within like 30 - 40 minutes he gave me a better setup, stance and posture but most importantly gave me a better way to move my body through the swing and make a "clean strike" (as he likes to call it). After only a few tries I was starting to make better, crisper contact .. with less effort. So here's hoping this is the start of my next step up and forward in the never-ending quest for better golfing Kenny B, cnosil, MattF and 3 others 6 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

Kenny B Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Played poorly yesterday. But I am hoping this is my last post where I say that! Made some bad shots, and some course management mistakes, in what I'd thought might have initially been an effort to play bogey golf (have done it recently) .. but ended 9 holes with a 53. (..horrible details omitted...) Later, I met up with the guy who runs and manages the (small muni) course; he took some time to give me a coaching session. Well, within like 30 - 40 minutes he gave me a better setup, stance and posture but most importantly gave me a better way to move my body through the swing and make a "clean strike" (as he likes to call it). After only a few tries I was starting to make better, crisper contact .. with less effort. So here's hoping this is the start of my next step up and forward in the never-ending quest for better golfing Great news!!!!!!!! Well done sir! A little better ball striking and those blow-up holes become fewer and fewer. cksurfdude 1 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big money Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 38 - 38 for a smooth 76.Was cold and windy hinting at an early fall.Playing my over the top pull isn't bad for the score.Having a one way predictable miss really helps the score cksurfdude, MattF, Flipper554 and 3 others 6 Quote Keep it in the short stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
